The light blue flickering rhythm Of the neighbor's big console TV Is basking on the ceiling Of another insomniatic spreeAnd outside sleep's open window Between the drops of rain History is writing a recipe book For every earthly painOh, to clean up the clutter of echoes Coming in and out of focus Words spoken like locusts Sing and sing in my headAnd thing is, they often seem In my memory's long dream To be superfluous To the true story of what was'CuzReal is real Regardless of what you try To say Or say awayReal is real relentless While words distract and dismay Words that change their tune Though the story remains the sameWords that fill me quickly And then are slow to drain Dialogues that dither down reminiscent Of the way it likes to rainEvery screen, a smoke screen Oh, to dream Just for a moment, the picture Outside the frameThen in a flash, the light blue horizon Spanning a sudden black Is sucked into the vanishing point And quiet rushes backTo search for the downbeat In a tabla symphony To search in the darkness For someone who looks like meThough I'm not really who I said I was Or who I thought I'd beJust a collection of recollections Conversations consisting Of the kind of marks we make When we're trying to make a pen work againA lifetime of themI say to me, now here listening I say to the locusts That sing and sing to me sitting Now here on the front porch swing of my eyesI hereby amend Whatever I've ever said With this sigh
